Impact of paleo-topography and ice sheet change on east Asian climate during the past 200,000 years

- Created a compilation of proxies for past sea level during the last interglacial (approximately 120,000 years ago) for areas in North America and Europe covered by the penultimate glaciation. I will use these constraints to create paleotopography reconstructions during the last interglacial. My role in this study was to develop the compilation methodology and to enter the data in the World Atlas of Last Interglacial Shorelines (WALIS). Published in Dalton et al., 2022, Earth System Science Data, https://doi.org/10.5194/essd-14-1447-2022- Compiled sea level constraints during the Last Glacial Maximum (approximately 20,000 years ago), including in eastern Asia. These constraints allow us to assess how much of the East China Sea was exposed, and how narrow the Tsushima/Tsugaru Straits were, to set up our climate modelling experiments on the East Asian monsoon (Gowan et al., in review, Nature Communications).- Worked on four other papers that have been accepted for publication. These papers focus on topics related to past climate change, and the evolution of ice sheets. These studies have application to my planned work on paleotopography reconstructions.

I also have worked on three other papers that have yet to be submitted.
